Digital Analytics @HBF Health.Beyond a broad and eclectic mix of technical skills that dominate my skill set, I too possess an approachable and knowledgeable demeanor that helps me translate my technical know-how and enthusiasm across a broad vernacular.
Data Analyst specialising in Digital Data

I offer this by streamlining the implementation of digital technologies (GA360 suite, GTM, Firebase, BigQuery, Adobe Analytics, Salesforce DMP and others) within various BAU and transformation squads across all digital workstreams, delivering on end-to-end expectations. Once successfully maturing our descriptive and reflexive analytics capabilities I have been instrumental in developing reporting prototypes in Tableau and Looker Studio to coach various business departments on developing in-house prescriptive analytics, understanding data definitions & articulation of the actionable insights to the executive committee.
Further increasing the extensibility of our omnichannel capabilities I designed the on-prem data warehousing solutions for all analytics data storage and user-level aggregation. Using SAS Enterprise Guide, BigQuery and Google APIv4 I build the template projects which enable our BI (Business Intelligence) squads to fold and stitch together digital analytics data with other datasets in the data warehouse, driving forward our capabilities around a unified customer view.
Why HBF Health, since 2016?
HBF Health is a grassroots Western Australia institution and not for profit health insurer for over 80 years. I am proud to be part of HBF as a member of the WA community. By championing forward thinking in an organisation focused on helping Australians health I feel like what I do really makes a difference.
